Significant power savings, Five-year warranty, Very fast
High price
Samsung retains its crown as the maker of the best mainstream, TLC-based SATA SSD on the market. However, the competition is now greater than in the 850 Evo's heyday, and for most people, the premium demanded by the 860 Evo simply won't be worth it, as th...

Abstract: Storage is an often-overlooked part of computing. The speed of your hard drive can make a big difference to how fast your computer feels, particularly when it comes to booting up and opening apps. SSDs have played a huge part in making devices feel snappy...

Now that the prices of SSDs are starting to fall again, the competition is starting to take off again. Especially the new models from Crucial and Samsung bring some life back to the business, which was badly needed in this market. Last year there were few...

Exceptionally fast, Long lifespan, Reasonable price
Modest sequential write speed increase
Finally, we have a worthy alternative to the 850 Evo, and it's the very SSD intended to replace it. Whether you're planning a new PC build or switching from solely mechanical storage for the first time, there's no contest: the Samsung 860 Evo is the be...

The Samsung 860 Evo and 860 Pro are among the fastest sata-ssd's of today. Whether by accident or not, any record that the Crucial MX500 series set last weekend, was broken again by the 860 Pro. While the differences in most tests remain very limited, the...

Small, but noticeable speed increases, Quadrupled endurance
SATA 3 protocol limits maximum potential
The Samsung 860 Evo is an undeniably better series of solid-state drives than their predecessors. They achieve noticeably faster speeds and offer quadruple the endurance. While we struggled to see the 860 Pro as a noteworthy upgrade, Samsung has brought i...
The big question is if we will go another four long years recommending a new EVO over other SATA SSDs. To answer that question, we'll have to see what happens as the 860 series matures. The 860 EVO's performance is very strong, but it has a few weak point...
Stylish and simple design, 4TB capacity available, Great performance (even faster than claimed), 5 Year warranty, Good endurance, Neutral, - Still pricey when compared to similar drives
After putting the 860 Evo through our test suite, the results are great. We saw it struggle in the random read test in AIDA64, but other than that, everything was way up there, even sometimes beating its more expensive brother, the 860 Pro; let it be note...
